Unitree G1: Advanced Humanoid Robotics Powered by AI
The Unitree G1 is a next-generation humanoid robot built for flexibility, precision, and real-world intelligence. Accordingly, it is designed for use in industrial, fitness, research, and human-interaction environments. With up to 43 high-performance joint motors, the G1 offers motion flexibility that exceeds most human capabilities.
Not only does it move fluidly, but it also features force-controlled dexterous hands for delicate object handling. These hands, equipped with up to seven degrees of freedom, use hybrid force-position control. As a result, they provide precise manipulation in tasks requiring sensitivity and coordination.
At the core of its intelligence is UnifoLM, Unitree’s Unified Large Model, which powers its decision-making and learning. Powered by imitation and reinforcement learning, the G1 adapts and evolves with repeated use. Furthermore, regular OTA software updates improve its abilities over time—making it smarter every day.
Additionally, the G1 includes an 8-core CPU, depth cameras, 3D LiDAR, and a 4-microphone array for advanced perception. For users needing more processing, an optional NVIDIA Jetson Orin module boosts onboard computing power. In the same fashion, WiFi 6 and Bluetooth 5.2 ensure fast and stable connectivity.
Another key point is its quick-release 9000mAh batteries, which provide about two hours of runtime per charge. Equally important, batteries can be swapped fast, allowing for continuous operation. Indeed, this design makes the G1 highly practical for extended tasks and rapid redeployment.
Moreover, the G1 is built with industrial-grade crossed roller bearings and dual-encoder joint sensors for precision. It supports secondary development, making it suitable for robotics research and specialized applications. Consequently, developers can customize and expand its functions with ease.
For larger-scale needs, Unitree also offers the H1, a taller humanoid focused on outdoor and bipedal navigation. All in all, the G1 and H1 together represent Unitree’s growing impact in the world of intelligent humanoid robotics.
